Biography
Showing the Discogs bio
Singer, songwriter, actor (Repoman, Congo), and author, born December 25, 1946 in Pascagoula, Mississippi, died September 1, 2023 in Sag Harbor, Long Island, NY.
He has inspired a cult following of "Parrotheads" and now a second generation known as a "Parakeets". Buffett began his recording career in Nashville, TN, recording country-rock in the 1960's but finally releasing his first record in 1970 and then moving to Key West to develop his beach bum attitude.
